Water Port Orford cedarTenere Umido
The Port Orford cedar Needs regular watering, but we suggest letting the soil dry between one watering and the other; let's take action every 2-3 weeks , remembering to water the substratum well with 1-2 buckets of water . Concerning those specimens grown in vases, let's remember that usually they need more watering, compared to the same shrubs placed in the ground. Moreover, they are often more sensible to temperatures, either very high or very low, and to radical apparatus diseases.

Light Port Orford cedarSole pieno
Plant which need at least a few hours a day of solar light. The Port Orford cedar bears even very harsh temperatures, therefore it can be grown outdoors without feeling endangered by low temperatures.During the winter months we can cover a portion of the soil near the roots with dry leaves or other mulch tissue; in this manner we will protect the plant from the harsh climate.

Cultivation Port Orford cedar
The Port Orford cedar develops like a tree. The development of these plants is columnar, they grow aiming high with a scarce lateral development. This plant in the winter assumes a yellowgreen colouring; it is medium in size and can reach 80 cm high. It keeps its leaves in the winter.

Pests Port Orford cedar
The spring weather, with a high temperature swing between the day and night hours, and pretty frequent rains, can favour the development of fungus diseases, which should be treated pre-emptively with a systemic fungicide, to use before the gems grow excessively; at the end of the winter we also suggest a wide range insecticide to prevent the attack of aphids and cochineals. We should always remember to do these treatments when there aren't flowerings in the garden.

Mold Port Orford cedar
Let’s favour an averagely drained, soft and rich growing substratum.
